Man... I'm having a hard time wrestling with what to do about having to bail on this hike. Options:
1. Head out next week solo, knock out the remainder from Chepeta. I will have hiked the entire Highline but not all at once. Have to cancel a short trip with Audra and some friends that I had planned for next weekend.
2. Wait til late August/Sept. Do it solo. Cancel a possible Winds trip that I was thinking about. Deal with shorter days and cooler temps but perhaps not so much monsoon action.
3. Wait til.. *gasp*.. next year?!?
Opinions? I'm giving this way too much brain power. Pretty bummed out about having to bail now that my head is more clear. Gotta make a decision...
